Seeing Pink in Wales


Thank you Beverly for hosting another wonderful Pink Saturday.
Oh yes... I thought about all of you when I was in Wales.
Every time I saw some thing pink...I thought I must take a shot for "Pink Saturdays"
So here are pink Houses from Wales-
Also included in this post are some pink flowers, and other pink stuff from the UK...


Note the huge pink Hydrangea in the right hand front yard

Note how close to the road the front door is,common in the UK

Pink houses with thatched roofs.

There used to be the belief a long time ago, that if ones door way was crooked the evil spirit could not get through to the family inside.I saw many old doorways that were crooked here...intresting.
Many beautiful pink flowers in Wale's
I remember this rose tree well...so sweet smelling!

Massive vines on stone wall's, with roses







Looks like he's growing pink flower fingers!

Hats are a big thing in the UK the more outlandish the better!


Pink dreams in Chester.
Store in Minehead called Pinkilicious
Lots of pink stuff in there
blue cars with pink accessories
Even Pink cake...Battenburg,for the recipe go to.... http://www.inmyweekitchen.blogspot.com

  2. I enjoyed seeing so many pink buildings from your photos you took on your trip to Wales. The gardens are very pretty and the vines around the doorway are quite charming. I would like the house that has all the hydrangeas!

  7. Winter is just around the corner in my neck of the woods so Pink Saturday is even more meaningful for me because I won't see my garden bloom again until at least May of next year!

    Thanks so much for your participation this week. It brightened my day☺

    Wishing you a wonderful weekend filled with happiness surrounded by those you love.
